El fenomeno Advergaming explicado en Wikipedia:
Advergaming is the practice of using video games to advertise a product, organization or viewpoint. The term "advergames" was coined in January 2000 by Anthony Giallourakis who purchased the domain names Advergames.com along with Adverplay.com. The term Advergames was later mentioned by Wired's "Jargon Watch" column in 2001, and has been applied to various free online games commissioned by major companies.

INFORMACION:
Dataspelsindustrin utgör idag en betydande del av den allmänna mediekulturen. I Sverige är företag som Starbreeze, DICE, Avalanche Studios och Jadestone Group viktiga på den internationella marknaden. Tillväxten är närmast explosionsartad och den spelande generationen blir allt större.
Reklamspel (advergaming) spås en fortsatt stark tillväxt. Företagsanalytiker uppskattar att intäkterna från reklamspel kommer att öka från 260 USD under 2007 till 500 miljoner USD under 2009.
Spelteknologi och spelkulturens sociala normer har stor inverkan på hur vi föreställer oss framtiden och framtidens kommunikation. Virtuell design sätter sin prägel även i andra sammanhang, bland annat inom industriell design och i Hollywoodproduktioner, men också i sättet som svenska företag kommunicerar med sina kunder i interaktiva lösningar. Spel har en betydande del i allt från nöje och nyheter till reklam och utbildning.
Let's play together kommer att behandla flera av dessa områden och visa att dator- och internetspelandet kommer att få en allt viktigare betydelse inom kommunikation. Den svenska spelindustrin har blivit en aktör att räkna med.

Abake’s “limo typography” is, at first glance, a simple black screen with several slots in it. But when you and your buddies jump behind it, you can stick your arms through the slots and make words or images out of your arms. Fun for the whole family… or, as one of the designers demonstrated when he grabbed random people to help him spell things - it’s a good way to make new friends, too!
FLUFFY FLUFFY!!
Towering 7m high the inflatable Solivoid swept last years Australia's Interior Design Awards. The Monash University creation was designed as a temporary coffee lounge for use at trade exhibitions. It provides a space for visitors to wait, while they also inadvertently generate multimedia patterns projected on its surface.
Interior Architecture lecturer Mr Darragh O'Brien said the project was an experiment that attempted to reconcile the ideal with the real. "It is a deliberate exercise in vagueness, reflecting the ambiguous nature of an evolving design process… In response to the contextual environment, occupants of the lounge will be suspended between inside and outside; between here and there; between matter and information.”

STRANGELY FAMILIAR: DESIGN AND EVERYDAY LIFE
Exhibition
GALLERIES 1, 2, 3
A light that responds to silence? A table that knows where it is? A pig farm the size of a skyscraper? Strangely Familiar: Design and Everyday Life brings together more than 40 such innovative projects, drawn internationally from the fields of architectural, product, furniture, fashion, and graphic design, that range from the sublime to the uncanny. Through works that question the habitual, transform the commonplace, alter our expectations of dwelling, and blur the boundaries of form and function, the exhibition challenges our assumptions about the design of objects and spaces around us.

sombras pintadas
Ese "casi nada" se llama The life of a Shadow y es una acción de street art de Ellis G. un artista de Brooklyn que se ha dedicado a siluetar, con una simple tiza blanca, todas las sombras inspiradoras que ha encontrado a su paso.
Vehículos aparcados en la calle, mobiliario urbano, persianas, mesas, sillas... todo lo que proyecta su sombra sobre las calles de Nueva York es susceptible de ser siluetado por este artista.
Su obra es tan perecedera, que bastan unas pisadas o una simple lluvia para que desaparezca sin dejar el menor rastro de su existencia. Arte con una fecha de caducidad demasiado corta, eso me gusta.
UNDER THE WATER
Se trata de la instalación que los arquitectos japoneses del estudio Sanaa han elegido, como obra permanente para su Museo de Arte Contemporaneo de Kanazawa y que ha sido creada por el artista argentino Leandro Erlich.
Los visitantes del museo tienen la posibilidad de acceder a un mundo subacuático donde todo es azul verdoso y el sonido del exterior llega amortiguado por el agua. De esta manera, el minutos antes, extrañado observador de este mundo irreal se convierte después en objeto observado por los que le preceden.
¿En qué lado del agua os gustaría habitar?.
Y ya que estaba me he dado una vuelta por la página de Leandro, no conocía su obra pero me ha sorprendido gratamente.
Según explican en ARQtipo "Leandro Erlich produce instalaciones fenomenológicas que juegan con nuestro sentido de la realidad a través de la astucia y la manipulación del espacio físico mediante efectos de simulación. Sus obras apelan a todos nuestros sentidos desafiando las reglas básicas de la percepción. Es aquí donde se origina el aplauso masivo que su arte ha evocado en los últimos tiempos: Erlich sabe apelar al espíritu juguetón de su público en el mundo entero, al sumergir a sus espectadores en un mundo de ilusión".
